In the early stages of practice, Reed exhibited discomfort, as evidenced by catching a pass down the right seam using just his right arm, according to John Keim of ESPN.com. As the session progressed, though, Reed looked like himself on a leaping reception with both hands in the back left corner of the end zone. Although he appears destined to be questionable for Sunday's game in Philadelphia, he may have approached the point where the medical and training staffs can help him combat the pain in his left shoulder.

At various points during the session, Reed gathered in a pass down the right seam without the use of his left arm -- per John Keim of ESPN.com -- before making a leaping grab with both hands in the left corner of the end zone. Reed's availability was always going to be dependent on range of motion and pain tolerance, which clearly impacted him Thursday. However, the aforementioned jumping catch provides a semblance of optimism that he'll be able to suit up Sunday at Philadelphia.

The Redskins tabbed Kory Lichtensteiger (calf) as their designee to return from injured reserve, meaning Doctson (Achilles) won't play again this season, Brian McNally of 106.7 The Fan DC reports.

Plagued by a sore left Achilles throughout the offseason program and preseason slate, Doctson toughed it out the first two games of the season. Among his two catches on six targets, he showed off his first-round pedigree with a 57-yard reception. Unfortunately, Week 2 marked his last appearance, he was placed on injured reserve in Week 7, and teams can only designate one player for potential activation from IR. He'll thus focus his efforts on an injury-free offseason in anticipation of a sustained role within the Redskins' offense in 2017.

Head coach Jay Gruden said Monday that he wants to get "more of [Kelley] involved" moving forward, CSN Mid-Atlantic reports.

After handling 20-plus carries in each of his first three starts, Kelley's workload has waned over the past two games. On Thanksgiving against the Cowboys, game flow dictated that Kirk Cousins take to the air, which didn't benefit a running back with little to no pass-catching chops like Kelley. In a back-and-forth affair at Arizona this past Sunday, balance wasn't exhibited yet again, and Kelley picked up exactly 14 carries for the second straight contest. With a recommitment to the ground game potentially on the docket, he's a candidate to rebound Sunday against an Eagles defense that has allowed 84.3 yards per game and three touchdowns on the ground to running backs over the last three outings.

Reed hauled in passes during individual drills, yet he skipped 1-on-1 work, which included blocking. Clearly unable to take contact at this time, he likely won't do so until the AC joint separation in his left shoulder allows such activity. On a positive note, he returned to practice for the first time since sustaining the injury on Thanksgiving, meaning he's making inroads in his recovery effort.
